    AWESOME!! They will remember this!!

    I have 2 little boys- one is 4 and one just turned 7. We had our first sleepover (just one little boy) this year and we made a tent out of the dining room table with quilts and they slept in it all night. They all fit. WHY didn't I take pictures????

    How I miss those days when the kids were small enough to make forts all over the house - you are very lucky! enjoy them.

    My boys are certainly capable of spending all their time in front of a screen, exercising their thumbs (video games), so I do extra enjoy it when they do something fun and creative, like the quilt forts. IT was specially sweet since they made sure that one worked for the youngest brother, who uses a wheelchair -- had to break out the tarp ties and bungy cords to make that work, but it was definitely worth it to make one that was wheelchair accessible ; )
